Tom Hill is a Lecturer with expertise in nonlinear mechanical systems, focusing on their unique properties compared to linear systems, particularly under conditions of high flexibility and large vibration amplitudes. His research interests primarily lie in nonlinear structural dynamics, where he seeks to understand the effects of nonlinearity in engineering structures and its considerations during the design process. His work involves nonlinear modeling, simulation, and system identification, utilizing both analytical and numerical techniques. He aims to advance high-performance engineering designs that operate effectively within regimes where linearity is traditionally assumed. Additionally, his research explores physical mechanisms that influence nonlinear modal interactions in structures and develops novel methods for identification of nonlinear systems through experimental testing.
